234 He can't hurt you

''Something happened''

Liling whispered making Liu Wei pause. He pulled her closer and began rubbing circles on her tummy.

''…today?''

''Yeah'' she replied, turning around to peer at his handsome features.

''I saw that man, the one that sent those texts. His name is Su Min. God! I hate his guts, he thinks every woman would fall for him because he 'feels' he is handsome, he sure thinks highly of himself. Can you imagine, even after telling him that I had someone I'm in love with, he had the guts to tell me that we can be friends and that I may fall for him, ha! ?Extremely hilarious!

The only thing that saved him from getting a good punch on the face was the fact that we were alone there, who knows what he would do to me...''

Liling angrily sat upright, letting the covers fall to her waists, exposing her finely shaped breasts. She did not even care, she continued demonstrating angrily.

Liu Wei's eyes shifted from her face to her bosoms, although he had just been with her, seeing her, like that ignited a fire within him.

''Do you know? He was even the one that recommended me to Manager Su... ''

Liling frowned seeing that he was not even responding to her rant.

''Liu Wei, are you even listening to me?''

She quickly traced his eyes to her chests and immediately slapped him with a nearby pillow.

''Ah! What did I do? '' Liu Wei laughed as he pushed the pillow away from his face, by then, Liling had covered her chest and was glaring at him.

''What was the last thing I said?''

She asked; arms crossed.

Liu Wei scratched his head with a grin on his face.

''I can't remember…''

''Liu Wei! I just said that I saw that stalker today, and you aren't even bothered about it! ''

She fumed: her lips in a pout.

''He can't hurt you. ''

Liling's eyes widened when she heard his statement. She peered at him questioningly.

''Wait, do you know him?''

''Kind of/ …''

Liu Wei replied, pulling her down and hugging her close, breathing in her scent.

''So you knew him all these while? How are you so sure that he cannot do anything to me? ''

''I have eyes on you, you did not expect me to leave you without any protection after you told me about the texts, did you?''

Liling stared at Liu Wei, who was now smiling down at her.

''So, there are people watching me? ''

''Yep ''

''But, why don't I see them? How many are they? ''

''Do you want to see them?, don't you realize how uncomfortable that would be?''

Liling reasoned for a while and she nodded.

''That's true, but what if something happens and he does something to me and they cannot save me?''

She asked, wonderingly.

Liu Wei was quiet for a while before pinching her nose lightly.

''That cannot happen. ''

''Shhh… it can never happen. ''

He immediately kissed her lips, shutting her up.

''If he takes a strand of hair off your body, that will be the end of him. ''

Liling, who was about opening her mouth, immediately shut it. She stared at Liu Wei's face which was clouded with a murderous glint a moment ago, raising her hand, she rubbed his features.

''I don't think he is serious, don't mind me, he would not possibly think of harming me, so don't do anything rash, okay?''

When she asked that question, she was clearly joking, but Liu Wei's reply was very serious, sending shivers down her spine. She did not want him getting into trouble because of her.

Liu Wei did not reply, he pulled her close and kissed her forehead.

''Let's get some sleep ''

…

Jin Yue did not return to the house for three days. He was afraid that she had left, and that when he came back, there would not be the usual chatter and laughter his house had.

He feared that he would regret what he had done, so he spent three days in the company, working non-stop, trying to justify his actions.

Finally, on the fourth day, not able to take it anymore, he decided to just go home. He knew he had told her to leave, but he prayed earnestly in his heart, that she should be there when he returned.

As he drove into his garage, his heart beat fast, it was so fast that he felt he would faint; he had to lean on the steering for a while to steady his heartbeat..

After a while, he alighted from the car. The whole house looked quiet from the outside and the lights where switched off, like no-one was in.

Jin Yue felt his hope crush and his eyes stung as he watched the building. His head fell for a moment and he wiped the tears that were threatening to fall.

Taking in a deep breath, he walked to the front door and input his password.

He pushed open the door and searched for the switch. As the lights came on, the living room came into view.

Everything was as he had left it that morning. Jin Yue looked around the living room and his eyes landed on the table.

The document and the check were still there.

She had not taken it…

Jin Yue froze for a brief moment before walking towards the table. He picked up the document and scanned through it.

She had not even signed it.

The check was still unfilled. She had left just like that.

Jin Yue thought for a while before dashing towards their bedroom.

She had made the bed which he knew was messy that morning, because he had tossed and turned around on it. It was the same, except for her little doll which she normally hugged_ it was missing.

Jin Yue walked to the closet.

Her clothes were there…

His eyes widened immediately, he could not believe his eyes. Her clothes were there which meant that she did not leave!

An inexplicable joy warmed Jin Yue heart but it only lasted a few seconds.
